Pinhole

The pinhole camera, to me, seemed like a completely new way to view how we take pictures. With the pinhole camera, we become a tripod with it in our hands, holding the small lens cap open to expose our film on the inside. It's going to be so interesting to see what we come up with, with our new cameras!

I'm very excited to use the pinhole, and I'm trying to think of something to take with it to get a good picture. So I set out onto the lovely internet and tried to find some pictures that would inspire me and here is what I'd found.


I picked these two different types of shots used with the pinhole because I wasn't really sure what mine would come out like. I want to be prepared to see maybe the circle around my image, or maybe it'll be like the one on top of that, and be a clear sepia style. I just don't know yet.

I love both of them because they are interesting in their own way. A normal picture of someone's house wouldn't have been such a good picture if it hadn't been taken with something as obscure as the pinhole camera. The field as well, we see them all the time, but what makes them interesting is knowing that a small little camera that we built ourselves took that image, and that's just damn cool.
